Andrew & Ryan continue their game of Marvel catch-up and tease what's to come!

Everyone knows Halloween officially ends in February. Well, here we are. Thanks for a wild ride. Now let's rank some Treehouse stories!

Is Starfighter the best Star Wars film since Empire Strikes Back?

As The Mandalorian & Grogu heads to theaters, a new theory suggests the true villain may not be a crime lord or Imperial warlord, but a compromised New Republic officer manipulating events from within, echoing long-standing themes from The Mandalorian and classic Star Wars storytelling.

A scrapped Hunt for Ben Solo project from Steven Soderbergh exposes a deeper issue at Lucasfilm under The Walt Disney Company. From The Last Jedi fallout to canon rigidity after the Rise of Skywalker, this breakdown explores why modern Star Wars seems to reject auteur filmmakers in favour of safe, brand-managed storytelling, and what that means for the future of the galaxy far, far away.

The Mandalorian & Grogu trailer is here, bigger, cinematic, and loaded with nostalgia. From Din Djarin's future to Grogu's Jedi training, this feels like Lucasfilm's biggest Star Wars gamble yet. Is this the comeback… or a last resort?

Disney and Lucasfilm finally drop the The Mandalorian & Grogu trailer, and it feels like full-on marketing damage control. John Williams hits hard, Grogu levels up, Din Djarin faces separation, but what's Disney really trying to fix? Let's break it all down.

Jon Favreau responds to growing fan skepticism surrounding The Mandalorian & Grogu, the first Star Wars movie in nearly seven years. We break down Favreau's comments on the Super Bowl spot, IMAX visuals, theatrical scale, Grogu's evolution, and why Disney believes this movie belongs on the big screen. Is this a smart return to theaters or a risky gamble for Star Wars fans?

This episode is written on Andrew & Amanda's letterhead, in their handwriting, using their speech patterns and idioms.

The Mandalorian and Grogu just dropped their big game spot, and it's one of the most confusing Star Wars ads in years. Disney spent millions on a cinematic, western-style Super Bowl commercial that looks great but tells us almost nothing about the movie coming this May. Is this bold marketing or a missed opportunity? Let's break down what worked, what didn't, and why fans are so conflicted.

A discussion sparked by a Rebel Scum Podcast comment asking if Dave Filoni fears stories outside the main Star Wars timeline. I break down why Star Wars stays rooted in the Skywalker era, how comfort and planning factor in, and what it will take for the franchise to finally move forward or backward in time.

Amanda & Andrew discover that one of them has an unhealthy obsession with jack o'lanterns, and the other really hates to talk about Trans Morphers, Trans Morphs, and Trans Formers. What's the difference? We have no idea.

Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista reveal they want to join Star Wars as villains, and I break down which characters they could realistically play in the galaxy far far away. From Sith Lords to terrifying warriors, these casting ideas could bring serious dark side energy to Star Wars. Let me know who you would cast them as in the comments.

Let's talk Acolyte, Mando and Grogu and more!

Star Wars enters a new era as Lucasfilm leadership changes hands. With Kathleen Kennedy stepping aside and Dave Filoni gaining more creative influence, fans are asking if this finally brings a clear plan and unified vision to the franchise.

Disney may be rethinking the Dave Filoni led MandoVerse Avengers style movie as new reports suggest it could become a Disney Plus series instead. We break down the rumors, Disney's box office fears, The Marvels fallout, and whether Star Wars works better on streaming or in theaters.

New details about Star Wars Starfighter reveal a bold creative direction with no legacy characters and a focus on pure Star Wars DNA. We break down what this means for the future of the franchise and why this movie could be a true return to form.

Golems and blobs and aliens, oh my! It's Tales from the Treehouse Episode 17!

The Maul Shadow Lord trailer is here and it looks dark gritty and very different from recent Star Wars. With stunning animation Crimson Dawn vibes and echoes of George Lucas original sequel trilogy ideas this new animated series could redefine Darth Maul and the future of Star Wars leading into May the Fourth.

Let's talk the New Maul Trailer and KK's departure!

The next Star Wars trilogy may include Rey in a surprising way. New rumors about Simon Kinberg's films hint at how Lucasfilm plans to move the franchise forward.

Star Wars has new leadership at Lucasfilm, but the long-rumored Dave Filoni Mando-Verse movie has officially been pushed to the backburner. With The Mandalorian and Grogu heading to theaters instead, we break down what really happened, why the Avengers-style crossover may have collapsed, and whether the Mando-Verse movie will ever happen at all.

Andrew and Amanda contend with artificial intelligence. Need we say more?

Kathleen Kennedy is officially leaving Lucasfilm after 14 years and Star Wars is entering a brand new era. With Dave Filoni taking over creative control and Linwood Bergman handling the business side, fans are asking the big question. Is Star Wars finally back? We break down the Deadline interview, the future of Star Wars movies, Filoni's creative leash, and what this leadership change really means for the galaxy far far away.

Is Star Wars changing course?

Disney is changing up Galaxy's Edge, and Tom Cruise worked on Starfighter!

Tom Cruise secretly helped film a lightsaber duel for Star Wars Starfighter and the implications are massive. With a post Rise of Skywalker setting and a mysterious water duel, this movie could be quietly laying the groundwork for Episode X and redefining the future of the franchise.

Is Kathleen Kennedy stepping down at Lucasfilm? A new rumour says so....again.

Kathleen Kennedy is set to announce her exit from Lucasfilm this month, paving the way for Dave Filoni to take creative control of Star Wars as the franchise enters a major new era under Disney.

A new scoop from DanielRPK claims a Star Wars horror series is in development for Disney Plus. If true this could mark the boldest and darkest creative swing Lucasfilm has made yet and it might be exactly what Star Wars needs right now.
